Beginning…of an end..

Dark alleys and smoky lights
Clinking glasses n club fights..

Dizzy nights..hvnt seen sunlight
Uncared, neglected I know no love
Unfeeling hardened I feel no pain..

Once a simple soul
Living midair, never on land
Striving to grasp life
In the palm of her hand..

Searching…longing..hesitant..scared
Was looking for something..
Got something else instead.

I wanted life…
Wanted a high.
They taught me to blow fumes..
Blow circles in the sky.

I wanted to forget
The trouble…the pain
“On the rocks” they said…gulp after another
again…yet again..

When fumes didn’t help
And drinks wore off
Took to the highway
Speeding..fast till the engines began to cough.

Momentary happiness…or a lifetime of crisis
Searching for freedom…I became a slave..
I became….A Mistress Of Vices………

Beginning…

Alone unguided
Without a care or moan,
I set looking for freedom
This search was my own.

When the heart yearned for a high now
Fumes or drinks I kept aside
In the winds embrace
I learnt to para glide.


And when the pain returned
And tears threatened to smear my face
I dove into the green expanse
All the tears dissolved in his embrace.

And then I want to run one day,
Without engines it’l b different now onwards
Earlier was running from something
But now am running towards..

When the heart yearns for silence
In the deep forests away from the noise..
The dark foliage seems like home
Here atlast I find my voice..

And when I feel like conquering
Those great heights I need
The mountains beckon and challenge
And to their peaks I proceed..

And now the world passes by…
As another grows within me
The one that evaded me so long..
In the wilderess I am now free
To this wilderness I was born.
